Shoppers in Texas no longer have to pay a sales tax on menstrual products, making the state one of the few in the nation to eliminate the so-called “tampon tax.”
A new law that went into effect Friday eliminates the sales tax on feminine hygiene products including items like tampons, menstrual pads and menstrual cups.
In addition to menstrual products, the law, S.B. 379, also eliminates the sales tax on family care items including diapers, baby bottles, baby wipes, maternity clothing and breast milk pump products.
Texas does something nice
Half the thread: Let’s find some reason to bash on Texas!
In fairness, you don’t have to look that hard.
When you’re really fucking shitty, people have a hard time saying nice things about you. Or even thinking that you actually did that “nice” thing for nefarious reasons.
Why do you think that is? Do you think this is coming out of nowhere?
Hitler did some good things too!!!
